Bio

I am a 5th year PhD student in the Systems Biology Graduate Program at Harvard, working on biofuels and mRNA metabolism. Prior to coming to Harvard, I went to the [www.technion.ac.il Technion Institute of Technology]I grew up in Israel, while spending a few years in the US before high school. I like traveling and being active. In particular I like basketball, tennnis, gym, and skiing. And of course, I love eating.

Research Interests

Synthetic Biology

Systems-level understanding of mRNA metabolism

I like a variety of sports (basketball, tennis, skiing..) and hangin out with friends.

Publications
